A Year in Distractions: Concerts 2009 (Better Late Then Never)
With the advent of 2010 coming, and because I am procrastinating my finals by all means necessary, I have taken the time to compile lists of my favorite distractions–aka media, the arts, etc–from the previous year. The rules are not that the cultural item was released this past year, but rather that I consumed it this year and affected me.
